What is it like to be truly in love? Is it a feeling, a thought, an action, time, or a gift? Perhaps to someone like me, it is like Wild Mountain Honey!
-----------------
Old Mountain tales of love spin
'neath dawn's blush,
Elderberries, purple ink drop pearls
drawing me nigh.
Ah! Her laughter just like a honeybee’s dance
in the summer’s rush.
For you ignite my days with passion,
'tis morn, a tear I cry.
The calm, twilight lingers as her words
soft and low
In the caress of wildflowers where life’s
tranquility forever grows.
O'! Upon thy lips such sweetness dwells
Must be God's design
Born where dandelions and wild bees
forever intertwine.
O', nectar kissed by sun untouched by
human hands
An arcadian panorama of ambrosia
upon my senses' land.
Thine gaze is my beacon in the
moonlit’s silvery velvet light.
You my guiding star ignites
for all my spirit’s journey
O' my soul’s delight.
For as a life-alchemists seek nectar
deep in the mountain’s heart
Thy love's an enchanting lore where peace
like nestling lark.
All the sages sighs, thymes' tempting lore
a beautiful pure chorus.
Heather fills rolling landscapes
an untold story before us.
Yes, my love's confession takes flight
with wild abandon
In the sanctuary, a haven bathed
in golden dawn.
Thy touch is a sacred psalm
a sonnet on the wind
Radiant grace, I scribe my song
on every blossom's stem.
Sunlight filters through sylvan green leaves
just for you
Thy smile, a warmth that sees my spirit
through and through.
Our love, eternal, untamed by
fleeting space or time
A taste of heaven's dew
a love of purest and most divine.
Together, hand in hand
we'll stray through life's inviolate maze
Where wildflowers bloom
and hearts forever graze.
No jeweled crown
arrayed in silks and finery,
Could display the love, my beloved
I found forever in thee.
For You are my sweet lady,
my songbird,
my forever home,
My wild mountain honey,
where my spirit roams.
In thee, a love unbound,
sweeter than sun-kissed dew,
My Wild Mountain Honey,
forever wild,
forever true.
